Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l+b)
= 60 m
Let the length and breadth be 7x and 3x respectively
According to problem,
2(7x + 3x) = 60
or 14x + 6x = 60
or 20x = 60
or x = 60/20
or x = 3
Thus ,
Length - 7(3)
= 21 m
Breadth - 3(3)
= 9m
Area of a rectangle = Length × Breadth
= 21 × 9
= 189 m
Area of the rectangle = 189m

Answer:
The area of the rectangle is 189 metres
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the ratio of the length and breadth be 'X'.
So, the perimeter of the rectangle is:-
2(length + breadth) = 60
2(7X + 3X) = 60
2(10X) = 60
20X = 60
X = 60/20 = 3
So, the length will be 7X = 7 (3) = 21m
and the breadth will be 3X = 3(3) = 9 m
And the area of the rectangle is
Length (Breadth) = 21m (9m)
= 189 m
